Dear fellow AFOLs,
BrickJournal™, BrickStructures™, Team Hassenplug, Team Possible, Team B-squared
and Fun Time Technologies have joined forces and are pleased to announce
Brickworld 07 to be held in Chicago. Brickworld™ is a chance to showcase your
creations right here in the Central Midwest. Chicago being the third largest
city in the U.S. naturally has a great deal to offer - including 3 Lego outlets.
We are strategically placing the Brickworld location in the suburb of Wheeling,
IL just 30 minutes northwest of downtown Chicago. Wheeling is conveniently
located close to the expressway servicing Ohare Airport and is also half way
between the 2 Lego outlets at Woodfield Mall and Northbrook Mall, each 15
minutes away. The 3rd Lego store is located downtown Chicago 30 minutes away.
The event will be held at the brand new 5 star Westin Hotel & Convention Center.
The main ballroom offers 15,000 sq/ft and an additional 15,000 sq/ft around the
ballrooms peripheral for small group sessions, competitions, demonstrations, The
Great Build (more about that later), marketplace, etc.
BrickWorld 07 will be held from June 21st - 24th 2007. We are excited to
bring this show to the public during a time of year when school is out and
sunshine & good weather are in. The convention area will be open for setup the
afternoon of June 21st for early birds. We will have a closed AFOL exhibitor
day on Friday and public exhibition on Saturday, June 23rd and Sunday, June
24th. This June weekend is reserved at the site for the next 3 years,
reinforcing this event as the one event not to miss!
BrickWorld attendees will be a part of a well organized, professionally run
event that will draw the public from the greater Chicago area and provide them a
show like they have never seen before. To do this, BrickWorld needs you!!
The floor organization of BrickWorld will be designed to accommodate large
collaborative displays, such as the Great Ball Contraption, Moon Base, Castle
and Train Layout, in the center of smaller, individual displays where each AFOL
has their own creations on their own table(s). Of course, there will be certain
displays that dont even need a table.
Stay tuned to Lugnet and the BrickWorld website www.Brickworld.us for details
and registration information. Meanwhile, we welcome your ideas.
We look forward to seeing you all in Chicago!!!
Sincerely,
The BrickWorld Team
